How to play
The object of the game is to clear the board of cookies by clicking on the turtle icon cells. If a turtle icon cell contains a cookie and is clicked on, you lose the game. Otherwise, a number is shown indicating the number of adjacent squares that contain cookies. If there are no adjacent cookies, the square is blank, and the surrounding squares are revealed. If you determine that a turtle icon cell contains a cookie, click to mark it as such. After all cookies have been marked, open the remaining turtle icon cells to finish the game. As a memory aid, you can mark a square that you hypothesize has a cookie behind it by clicking on the cookie icon.
You win :)

Learning with Cookie Search
Cookie Search is a exercise in logic.
Modifying Cookie Search
- Replace the artwork with your own designs. (Note that the way in which the program distinguishes between the turtle and the cookie is by looking at the red component of the image. Pixels with red values between 190 and 210 are "cookie"; all other values are considered turtle.)
